My YouTube Links Repository.

I have a feeling that I'm going to be collecting A LOT of these links to YouTube clips that I want to show to people. So, I'm creating this post. I'll just update it and add more, as I discover them.

(Also, check it out, I've permanently included a link to this post in my Media Section down on the lower left sidebar. So, three months from now when you want to see something that you ran into here, you can find this post easily, without digging through my archives. Enjoy!)

It Had To Be Me.
Phillip Mottaz's 2006 Vidiocy winning Short Film. The ending is BRILLIANT. Look for a brief cameo from Yours Truly as the "Billionaire Philathropist." Brilliant, Just Brilliant!
It Had To Be Me

Tech TV Edison Recording Tube Disaster.
Watch as the guest on Chris Pirillo's old show on Tech TV absolutely destroys a priceless, one of kind artifact. His frustration is actually tangible. Enjoy.
One of a kind item.

Kicked In The Nuts.
My Improv Coach, Bob, shared this with us at DSIF. It's an online video of a fictional, spoof, reality tv show called "Kicked In the Nuts." Watch for the kids tossing baseball together. That's my favorite.
My Friend! My Friend!

Bo Dietl on The Daily Show
Ah, the wonders of You Tube. I can see this clip on The Daily Show, months ago and find it for your enjoyment. Check out the clip of Security Expert, Bo Dietl, as he explains the Terrorists plans for you and your testicles at the 3:38 mark of this clip. I laughed about this for weeks.
Ballbags!

While My Ukele Gently Weeps.
You know what? It's better if I don't tell you. Just check it out on your own and be amazed.
Amazing.

On a Similar Note, here's a Guy Wearing a Suit Covered in Horns, playing classical music by dancing around. He's French!

Some Don Hertzfeldt For You...
This is just a link to a previous blog entry to some other YouTube links. Specifically to two classic Don Hertzfeldt cartoons. "La'Amour" and "Rejected" Sorry to send you deeper down the rabbit hole, I just don't want to keep re-copying the links...

Speaking of Amazing Animation...
Stephanie pointed me towards this. It's a live, sand animation display from the Seoul Animation Festival in 2003. Be sure to watch it with the sound on. It's incredible.

Wes Anderson's American Express Commercial.
I know. I know. You're thinking, "Why did you link me to an American Express Commercial?" You're just going to have to watch it to find out. If you're a fan, at all, of his movies. You're going to love this.

2 Michel Gondry Videos Worth Checking Out.
(Pay close attention to the people in the background.)
Kylie Minogue's - Come Into My World

The images in the next clip are neatly synched with the beats of the music. Too cool.
Chemical Brothers - Star Guitar

A dreamy, surreal, single shot slide around an apartment building. Great song! Great Video!
Massive Attack - Protection

Spike Jonze's Gap Ad.
The GAP stores were apparently going to all be made over gradually. This is how the company announced it to the world.
Random Destruction and General Mayhem.

A Spike Jonze Video
This is his video for Elektrobank, a song by The Chemical Brothers. The Gymnast in the video is Sofia Coppola, who later married and then divorced Jonze and eventually directed "Lost in Translation". It's an amazing video and Coppola does so some of the gymnastics in the video, but nothing that's shown at a distance. Wow.
Check it out, man!

A Kid Gets Hit By A Basketball.
Keep your eye on the kid who runs by the bottom of the screen. POW!
Look out, kid!

The Best Batman Movie You Never Saw.
This is a "trailer" for a movie that was never made. It's called "Grayson" and the guy who plays Dick Grayson (aka Robin) wrote and directed it. It's impressive as Hell and just like a normal trailer gives away all the best parts. You can actualy piece together the plot pretty well, from everything that it gives you.
I would've HAPPILY paid my $9 to see this movie. Check it out.

The Internet is for Porn.
Hm, not what you think it is, this is actually a fan film that someone threw together. The song "The Internet is for Porn" is from the musical Avenue Q. The video is a well-edited hodgepodge of clips from an online video game, I don't know which one. But it's a lot of fun. And very funny. Check it out.
The Internet is for Porn.

Star Wars Blooper Reel.
Pretty Self Explanatory.
Save Chewie!

Star Wars Audition Tapes from SNL.

Darth Vader is a Smartass.
Very clever editing, takes an iconic moment from the Star Wars trilogy and makes a brilliantly funny moment out of it. Bravo.

Mr.Show's - Great Seeing You Again, Guy.
Remember that time when you asked me what my favorite Mr. Show sketch was. Yeah, well this was the one I was talking about.
"There he is."

The Ballad of Bilbo Baggins.
This is a novelty recording that Leonard "Mr. Spock" Nimoy did of a silly little song called "The Ballad of Bilbo Baggins." I guess he was a big Tolkein fan. Rather than mire the video down in a lot of fantasy imagery, the director has very wisely decided to compliment Mr. Nimoys unique vocal style with Go -go dancers and a pleasant day at the beach. The whole thing looks very "community theater", if you ask me.
Hobbits Unite.

William Shatners' "It Was a Very Good Year."
A nice compliment to Nimoys' Bilbo Baggins piece, this is Shatner performing the Sinatra piece on the Dinah Shore show in the 70's. It's from his "monologues as music" years. And it's truly, truly awful.
"When I was seventeen........it was........a very good year!"


William Shatner's Seven
From the Mtv movie awards, a couple of years ago. I think this is Shatners finest work. Look for a cameo from a pre-fame Carmen Electra as the green delivery girl.
WHAT'S IN THE FUCKING BOX?!?

Intro to The Six Million Dollar Man.
Inspired by a recent post, I looked this up. Check out this hot video action!
We Have The Technology.

Intro to Buck Rogers in the 25th Century.
Okay, I admit it. I freaking LOVE this Intro Music. It's so Retro-futuristic and definitely firmly rooted in disco. Alas, though, there's no copy of it available for downloading. Check out the teenage boy singing the words to the lyrics at the end of the clip. Far out!!!
The Year is 1987!

Robot Sex from Buck Rogers.
Jesus, this show was terrible. This is a scene set in a bar, where Twiki (whose famous catchphrase was "Beety Beety") meets a female Twiki-type of robot who says....wait for it... "Booty Booty". At the end, he wanders off after her, presumably to bang her behind the robot bar. How did this stuff end up on network television?
"Booty Booty"


More to come, I am sure.
